360-degree rotating bucking machines - GalipTrenchless&OilEquipment

A 360-degree rotating bucking machine, also referred to as a bucking unit, is a specialized hydraulic equipment designed to make up (assemble) or break out (disassemble) threaded connections in drilling tools, casings, tubing, and other downhole tools.
The 360-degree feature means the machine can rotate the component it is working on a full 360 degrees, giving operators more control and flexibility during operations.

Here are some key features of our fully rotational bucking unit:

High Torque Capacity: Our machine handles up to 200,000 ft-lb of torque, accommodating a wide range of applications. It can operate efficiently from as low as 200 ft-lb, providing versatility for various operations.
Advanced Hydraulic System: The machine features a low-pressure hydraulic system, eliminating the need for high-pressure hoses and fittings. This not only reduces costs but also enhances safety.
Fixed and Traversing Components: The unit consists of a fixed headstock and a traversing tailstock.
Hydraulically Controlled Clamp Cylinders: Both headstock and tailstock include hydraulically controlled clamp cylinders that can adjust to tubular goods from 2 3/8 to 48 inches in OD without changing jaws, minimizing downtime and safety risks.
Fully Floating Tail and Headstock Option: For offset torque connections, the machine provides a fully floating tail and headstock option, available for machines up to 100,000 ft-lb and 22-inch working OD.

What Can Users Do With a 360-Degree Rotating Bucking Machine?

Users can efficiently assemble or disassemble threaded connections in drilling tools and other downhole components.
They can have more control over the operation due to the machine’s ability to rotate a full 360 degrees.
They can monitor and record detailed operation data for quality control and auditing purposes.

Benefits of a 360-Degree Rotating Bucking Machine

Improved Control: The 360-degree rotation provides improved control over the makeup or breakout process, making it easier to align and work with the components.
Enhanced Efficiency: The 360-degree rotation can make the operations faster and more efficient.
Increased Safety: By minimizing manual handling of heavy components, the machine enhances workplace safety.
Quality Assurance: The machine’s built-in monitoring and recording systems provide valuable data for quality assurance and auditing.

Differences Between a 360-Degree Rotating Bucking Machine and a Normal Bucking Unit

Rotation Capability: The key difference is the ability of the 360-degree machine to rotate components a full 360 degrees, whereas standard bucking units may have more limited rotation capabilities.
Operational Control: The 360-degree rotation can offer greater control over the assembly or disassembly process.
Efficiency: Depending on the specific components and operations, the 360-degree rotation can potentially make the bucking process more efficient.
